I'm Gwen, and I'm lucky enough to be spending winter term of my senior year at the University of Oregon working with IE3 Global Internship, and Child Family Health International (CFHI) in Bolivia. My time will be divided, with the first 5 weeks spent working at a hospital in the capital, La Paz, and the last 5 weeks working in a clinic in Tarija.
CFHI's main goal is to provide global health education through immersion and observation, something I'm very passionate about. This internship particularly focuses on pediatric medicine, and I've been told that the hospital I will be working in is a pediatric hospital. I'm excited to experience a different type of healthcare system firsthand, all while taking in everything I can about the Bolivian culture and Spanish language! |
